The hotel is located in the quiet village of Doune within a five minute walk of Doune Castle. The village boasts of thriving local stores which offer unique and handmade products.

The Doune ponds offers a place for walkers and bird watchers There is a bird hide and viewing platform at the ponds. There are picnic tables at the ponds but seats are not provided around the walk. The path is wide enough for two people to walk side by side for most of its length and it is firm and stable

The Falkirk Wheel

The Falkirk Wheel is a rotating boat lift in Scotland, connecting the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. The lift, named after the nearby town of Falkirk in central Scotland, opened in 2002. The Falkirk Wheel is the only rotating boat lift of its kind in the world. A interesting and educational day out.

Deanston Distillery

Deanston Distillery is one of Perthshire's main tourist attractions. If you are in the area, a visit to the Distillery would be well recommended. Here at the Woodside Hotel we sell a fine selection of whisky, including Deanston. From the hotel, the Distillery is just a 20 minute stroll down the road with lovely scenes on your journey. A virtual tour of the building is always offered if you were interested. A great day out.
